Standing increases the risk of heart disease

Predominately standing jobs increases
the risk of heart disease than sitting,
Researchers discovered that people were likely to develop heart disease, back problems and spontaneous abortions if they are predominately standing all day.

Standing causes blood to pool down towards the legs by putting more stress on the heart to circulate it back up.
People engaging in standing jobs must sit at intervals in order to prevent the risk of developing heart disease.

Researchers examined different people on their work habits based on if they predominantly sat, stood or combination of both. Men were 39 percent less likely to develop heart disease while women were 80 percent more likely to develop heart disease than those that were sitting. This shows that standing was more damaging to health than sitting while at work.
